Past Conference on IBS

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INDUSTRIALISED BUILDING SYSTEMS:

"The construction industry has for many years maintained the time-tested but labour intensive traditional approach in construction and investing little in research and development. As the K-economy enters its stride into the new millennium, technological advances shall play a major role in changing the competitive work environment in the construction industry. Concurrently, as the demand for production and quality increases, the construction industry must indulge itself in innovations and be supportive of new technological techniques in construction. It is believed that the implementations of Industrialised Building System (IBS) in most countries have endured the high expectations from consumers.

Hence, the 3-Day International Conference on Industrialised Building System shall be an opportunity for the sharing of experiences in areas related to research, development and construction.The theme for this Conference IBS2003, is Global Trends In Research, Development and Construction. IBS2003 is toprovide a platform for the interaction amongst experts, researchers, designers, builders, developers and policy makers from allover the world for appraisal of latest developments in Industrialised Building Systems and for the identification of further programmes for the propagation of industrialized construction as the preferred mode of quality construction."
